Rolleiflex 2.8F TLR Camera

[VectorVonDoom]

I fancied drawing a camera and decided on this one. The lens reflections were a bit boring on the reference so I used ones from a different photo where I didn't like the camera body. But between the two it looks OK.

As always your work leaves me just speechless!😎

Thanks although I’ve realised that this sort of stuff isn’t generally appreciated (on here is perhaps the exception). There’s more reaction to simple stuff that takes a few hours than things that have taken ages! But you don’t necessarily do it for others.

WOW ! I appreciate very much that kind of work and I'm speechless too.

Great job! I must have a go at one or two of mine; haven't got a Rollei, though I have a Microcord, which is based on it.

I look at your pictures and find myself - as usual - speechles. Then I look at the wire frame and my dumbfoundedness is taken to another level.

Are you sure you're not an alien artist from another planet? 😉

There's a Rolleicord in the family but no-one has used it for ages. Have been thinking about using it recently but not got around to it yet.

Funny thing is I'm generally not a patient person (especially with stupid people!) but for certain things I can be.

The level of details in this design is outstanding even compared to the more complex pieces shared here over time. Out of curiosity, how many hours did it take to complete this piece (approximately)?

I don't normally keep track but think it was roughly 3 weeks. Which when you look at the outlines I often wonder why it took so long.
